Abstract

We consider the disordered monomer-dimer model on cylinder graphs Gn , i.e., graphs given by the Cartesian product of the line graph on n vertices, and a deterministic finite graph. The edges carry i.i.d. random weights, and the vertices also have i.i.d. random weights, not necessarily from the same distribution. Given the random weights, we define a Gibbs measure on the space of monomer-dimer configurations on Gn . We show that the associated free energy converges to a limit and, with suitable scaling and centering, satisfies a Gaussian central limit theorem. We also show that the number of monomers in a typical configuration satisfies a law of large numbers and a Gaussian central limit theorem with appropriate centering and scaling. Finally, for an appropriate height function associated with a matching, we show convergence to a limiting function and prove the Brownian motion limit around the limiting height function in the sense of finite-dimensional distributional convergence.
